Were losing daylight but I can't work any faster.
Under the veil of dust we go on
Don't close your eyes.
What if it all disappears in the shadows?
Now reach for the stars
If I held my ground would you ask me to change
This drought bleeds on now were dancing for rain
We drink the air but its still not the same
These worlds collide but the distance remains
We point the finger, never accept the blame and I know, I know
The waters come but the fire still rages on here
The men all shrugged their shoulders and left
We sleep so sound in rooms just up the stairs
Will you save us like you saved them?
If I held my ground would you ask me to change
This drought bleeds on now were dancing for rain
We drink the air but its so not the same
These worlds collide but the distance remains
We point the finger, never accept the blame and I know, I know
You've bled me dry but I'm still breathing
I swear I'm sucking dry the sky
And you won't ever find us kneeling
Or swallowing your lies
If I held my ground would you ask me to change
This drought bleeds on now were dancing for rain
We drink the air but its so not the same
These worlds collide but the distance remains
We point the finger, never accept the blame, and I know, I know
This drought bleeds on, this drought bleeds on.
